When patients at Sunny Smiles have problems that require restorative treatments, they can look forward to care that protects teeth and also preserves how they look! We can offer these kinds of results because we rely on dental crowns and dental fillings that can imitate your healthy enamel. In addition to matching the appearances of healthy tooth structure, these restorations will be able to support teeth even as you continue to apply bite pressure with them. One thing we should note is that when you are consistent about dental exams, you make yourself less likely to need restorative work; when you do need it, a problem is cared for before there are complications.
Your Dentist Can Help When Your Tooth Is In Poor Health
If your tooth is harmed by a cavity or physical injury, we can take the appropriate actions to stop its health from worsening, and we can make sure it is protected with a durable and lifelike restoration. We regularly check for issues whenever patients come in for dental exams and cleanings. With timely support, we can actually detect and address cavities before they start to make you uncomfortable. Restorative dentistry provides care for more than just cavities. When a tooth experiences a physical injury, it may be necessary for you to have a crown put in place to protect it, as the damage may be too severe for cosmetic dental work.
How Should Your Tooth Be Treated?
Restorative dentistry can result in the placement of either a dental filling or a dental crown. The decision is made after an evaluation determines just how severe the problem is—a filling is a more conservative treatment option, but it is limited in how much damage it can address. For more advanced cavities, it can be necessary to provide the coverage of a dental crown. With both options, we can provide protection while still maintaining your appearance.
How Preventive Visits Help You Avoid Future Problems
Consistent preventive dental appointments will help you avoid cavities, as they provide professional cleanings to fight tartar buildup. They will also offer support in the form of restorative care when there are signs of trouble. It can be less than thrilling to learn that you have a cavity, but you should know that when the issue is caught in time, it can be treated when only a filling is needed, meaning more of your tooth structure is preserved.
